Edward Lewis (Pretty Woman)
When we speak about this film, we can hardly imagine anyone playing Edward except Richard Gere. But it could have been Al Pacino. Julia Roberts and Al Pacino even rehearsed together, but the actor realized he wasn’t interested in the film.
Christopher Reeve, Daniel Day-Lewis, and Denzel Washington were considered to be good actors for this role, but Julia Roberts convinced Gere to accept an offer.
